Fanta Cooper

Fanta Cooper serves as a key procurement lead within the W7NV Uspfo Activity Ok Arng, a Department of the Army unit responsible for sustaining the operational readiness of the Oklahoma Army National Guard. In this role, Cooper manages acquisition programs that ensure mission continuity through logistical support, facility maintenance, and quality-of-life services critical to training and recruitment cycles. Their procurement portfolio centers on securing essential services that directly support personnel welfare and infrastructure integrity, with a strong emphasis on contract compliance, performance-based acquisition strategies, and timely delivery of mission-critical resources under FAR and DFARS guidelines. While specific contractor names are not publicly identified, Cooper’s contracting patterns reflect a consistent engagement with small business vendors, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. The agency’s procurement approach prioritizes inclusive sourcing, with nearly 89% of awards designated as small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a deliberate strategy to foster partnerships with small, disadvantaged, and locally based suppliers. This pattern underscores a commitment to building resilient supply chains through broad-based small business participation, aligning with DoD-wide goals for economic opportunity and workforce development. Cooper’s primary industry focus lies in hospitality and facility support services, with 55.6% of acquisitions classified under NAICS 721110 for hotels and motels—reflecting the need for transient lodging during annual training and mobilization events. Additional procurement activity spans medical laboratories (621511), industrial equipment manufacturing (333924), and communications hardware (334220), demonstrating a multidisciplinary approach to sustaining readiness. These categories reveal expertise in procuring both direct support services and specialized technical equipment required for garrison operations, underscoring a nuanced understanding of the National Guard’s unique logistical demands.
